Okay, here's my take...

I’ve spent my career building things – brand identities, design systems, marketing materials, digital assets, videos, animations, event spaces, etc., etc. - all meant to help others communicate better. But somewhere in the middle of all that building, I stopped doing much of it for myself.

This is My Take. A small act of resistance against that.

This is a place to put thoughts somewhere other than a half-filled notebook or the drafts folder on my phone. A running log of what’s been on my mind about design, creativity, leadership, and the strange balance between craft and chaos that keeps this work interesting.

I don’t have a content plan, a post schedule, or a neat thesis I’m trying to prove. Just the same curiosity that’s been steering me all along — the urge to notice patterns, question defaults, and make sense of how ideas come to life (and sometimes fall apart).

Some takes will be rough, some more refined. Some will probably age poorly — and that’s fine too. The point isn’t to be right; it’s to stay in motion.

Here’s my take…
